The US and Iran will hold a new round of nuclear talks on Saturday, April 19, in Rome - the first time on a European platform in recent years. This is reported by Bloomberg, writes UNN.
According to Bloomberg sources, the talks are to coincide with a visit to Italy by US Vice President Jay Dee Vance, although it is unclear whether he will participate in them.
Last week, a meeting was held in Muscat, the capital of Oman, between President Donald Trump's chief envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. Both sides described the talks as constructive and agreed to continue the dialogue.
Witkoff told Araghchi that he had received instructions from Trump to "resolve the differences between our two countries through dialogue and diplomacy, if possible."
Iran's currency and shares rose on Sunday in response to the parties' statements of intent to continue negotiations.
A statement from the Iranian Foreign Ministry said that amid growing diplomatic momentum around the talks, IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi is expected to visit Tehran on Wednesday.

Israeli Captives' Families : Ending Gaza war Only way to bring Our sons Home
Occupied Quds – Saba: The families of Israeli captives warned on Sunday against the expansion of the Israeli occupation forces' military operations in the Gaza Strip, stressing that the only way to secure the return of their captive sons is through a deal—even if the price is ending the war. During a meeting with the Israeli occupation army's Chief of Staff, war criminal Eyal Zamir, the families cautioned against endangering the remaining captives amid the escalating aggression on Gaza, according to the "Sanad" News Agency. They stated that expanding the war would lead to more captives being killed, noting that "41 captives have already been killed due to military operations," based on testimonies from released prisoners who reported deteriorating conditions under Israeli bombardment. The families rejected the expansion of the Israeli army's attacks on Gaza, warning that "military pressure" threatens the lives of the remaining captives. Meanwhile, the criminal Zamir claimed that recovering the hostages remains the army's "top priority." The families emphasized, "Expanding the bombardment puts the captives at real risk, and this danger has already cost us the lives of our loved ones." They stressed that the only way to bring the survivors home is through an agreement—even if it means ending the war. "We are sounding the alarm for the remaining 58 captives, so they may return alive and allow the burial of those who have died,"the families said. With American and European support, the Israeli occupation army has been committing genocide in Gaza since October 7, 2023, resulting in the martyrdom of 54,418 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injuring 124,190 others—a non-final toll, as thousands remain trapped under rubble or in streets, unreachable by rescue teams.

Trump's latest tour in region… Extracting money & supporting Israel's aggression on Gaza
Sana'a - Saba: The recent visit of U.S. President Donald Trump to the region, specifically to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE, revealed the White House's extreme inclination toward securing financial gains—as is its habit of plundering the wealth of nations under the influence of power. On the other hand, Trump persisted in ignoring Arab consciousness regarding the land, particularly Palestine , Gaza, and insisted on making statements treating Gaza as if it were a commercial investment project. More than once, he implied that Gaza "needs an investor," showing no regard for the feelings of Arabs and Muslims as he disregarded Gaza's suffering—even while being hosted by them. Trump left the region laden with spoils exceeding a trillion dollars, while the Israeli enemy continues to commit the most horrific massacres in the Gaza Strip, piling up numbers of martyrs, wounded, starving, and displaced in a tragedy the modern world has never witnessed. Instead of addressing this, he focused during his visit on extorting Gulf money while simultaneously pushing his colonialist ideas for Gaza—effectively giving Israel the green light to expand its brutal aggression and ground operations in Gaza, known as "Gideon's Chariots." Trump's Eye on Gaza Last Thursday, Trump expressed his desire for U.S. involvement alongside Arab countries in managing the Gaza Strip after the war. He stated that he wanted the United States to "own" Gaza and turn it into what he called a "freedom zone," adding that he had "very good ideas" for Gaza—namely, making it a "freedom zone." Trump went beyond merely proposing the idea, expressing his enthusiasm for its implementation, saying, "I would be proud if the United States owned Gaza and made it a freedom zone." He spews these absurdities while Gaza bleeds its finest sons and lives through a tragic reality the world can no longer ignore. Even Western Europe has begun reacting, condemning Zionist behavior after months of bloodshed, while Washington remains blind, thinking like a filthy war merchant about investing in Gaza—completely disregarding its people. Such is the American vision: disregarding humanity and believing only in money and the interests of gangs. These were not mere wishful statements but revealed ideas discussed in negotiations with mediators in Doha. Trump appeared supportive of an Arab-American role in managing Gaza after the war, with leaks suggesting this joint administration could last ten years. The U.S. president's statements came amid unprecedented Israeli aggression across Gaza, which claimed over 400 martyrs during his three-day tour. This is how America reveals its ugly face—exploiting and plundering the wealth of nations, destroying their vital forces, supporting ruin, bloodshed, and continuous killing, just as it supports the Israeli entity. At the same time, it insists on closing its eyes to the sight of corpses , rubble , the cries of the wounded and starving in Gaza. But history will not spare the bloodsuckers and looters of peoples' wealth! With absolute American support, the Israeli enemy has been committing the crime of genocide in Gaza since October 7, 2023, leaving nearly 173,000 citizens dead or wounded—most of them children , women—and over 11,000 missing.
